Welcome to the Spinal Cord InjurySex and Intimacy Forum.

This forum is available to you and your partner/s, as well as professional health workers, as a place to discuss (or just hear what others are experiencing) having sex with or as a person with a Spinal Cord Injury. We will also be presenting articles written by specialists in their fields, on subjects of interest to the community.

Have you ever felt that you are the only one with a Spinal Cord injury (SCI) experiencing sex and intimacy issues?

Do you often feel that there is no venue or appropriate place to discuss these issues/concerns privately with like-minded people?

SexSCI.me is for consumers and health professionals, to discuss concerns and issues regarding sex, intimacy and spinal cord injury and to also share tips and advice on topics relating to gender, sexual preference, parenting and fertility with each other, in a community forum.
